A Rainy Summer Day

A good thing since a thunderstorm throughout the night led to lovely, steady rain...all the day long.

Hung up the beach hat and picked up the "The Waiting". Just a few chapters in and really enjoying it since it's based on a true story. Well written, good story.

Baked a couple of banana tea cakes....pretty but didn't quite bake through! I need an oven thermometer OR a new oven! Darn. I put them back in which seemed like forever before they were done. Love these cute paper 'pans'. I wonder if they were the culprits... Oh well, they tasted delicious finally. So thankful for this day!!

"In the course of twenty crowded years one parts with many illusions. I did not wish to lose the early ones. Some memories are realities, and are better than anything that can ever happen to one again."
